we are not at war.
At least we have not declared war. Our activity in both Afghanistan (S.J. Res. 23) and Iraq (H.J. Res. 114) were authorized by Congress, but they did stop short of declaring war.
It makes me wonder why the President keeps claim war powers, and the press keeps talking about Bush's wartime powers.
Since, we are not at war.
PS We have declaired war 11 times, the last time in 1942 (against some nations allied to Germany)

My, my you're a genius. Congress has not declared war. But Al Qaeda has. So tell me, are we at war or not?
What about the War on Christmas?
Anonymous.
We are not at war, it is that simple. Congress is the body that has to declaire war, and they have, to this point, refused.
In addition.
Al Qaeda is not a state, so there is the obvious question, how do you declair war on a non governmential body.
This talk of war (about Iraq and Al Qaeda) is just an abusrdity being used to try to justify illegal acts being committed in our name, that in the end are making us far LESS safe.
and sadly Tim
The war on Christmas must go on. The ratings at Fox news demand it.
